| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse field bears the Shi'a kalima in elegant nasta'liq calligraphy, distributed across three horizontal lines reading 'la ilaha illa Allah / Muhammad rasul Allah / Ali wali Allah', affirming the Islamic profession of faith together with the Shi'a declaration of Ali's saintly authority. The inscription fills the flan in bold, deeply incused strokes characteristic of Safavid religious coinage. A border of pellets surrounds the field along the coin's irregular edge, consistent with the obverse treatment. The layout and script style conform to the standard reverse type employed throughout the reign of Shah Sultan Husayn. |

Husayn I was the last effective Safavid shah, and the Nakhjavan mint operated under increasingly desperate conditions during his final years. Afghan forces under Mahmud Hotaki were advancing through Persia by 1720, and provincial mints like Nakhjavan — situated in the Araxes valley, far from Isfahan — were among the first to feel administrative collapse. The shah surrendered Isfahan itself in October 1722, effectively ending the dynasty.
Coins from Nakhjavan in this narrow window are scarcer than those from the major royal mints, reflecting disrupted production rather than low original demand.
